PATTON’S  SUN-PROOF  MASTER  PAINTERS’ 
FINISHING  WHITE  LEAD  — babble

Patton’s  Sun-Proof  Master  Paint- 
ers’ Finishing  White  Lead  is  a paint 
in  paste  form,  ready  to  be  reduced 
for  use  with  linseed  oil. 

The  composition  of  Patton’s

and  is  strictly  pure  white  lead  and 
zinc  oxide,  both  doubly  ground  in 
strictly  pure  linseed  oil  to  impal- 
pable fineness,  with  silica. 

Theoretically  and  practically  this 
is  the  most  durable  paint  that  can 
be  made. 


It  is  packed  for  shipment  as  follows: 

In  I,  2,  3 and  5 lb.  tin  cans,  100  lbs.  to

PATTON’S  MASTER  PAINTERS’  TINTING 
COLORS  — babe 


These  colors  are  in  direct  connection  with  the  Master  Painters’ 


Finishing  White  Lead.  The  tints  are  made  by  adding  a certain  quantity 
of  the  tinting  colors  to  a quantity  of  Master  Painters’  Finishing  White 
Lead.  This  is  a new  principle  in  the  mixing  of  tinted  paints,  and  one  that 
is  particularly  adapted  to  the  requirements  of  those  who  wish  to  mix  the 
colors  for  themselves.  There  can  be  no  mistake  in  the  mixing,  and  the 
colors  come  exactly  as  you  expect  them.  The  tints  are  scientifically 
compounded  to  go  with  a definite  quantity  of  the  Master  Painters’ 
Finishing  White  Lead,  and  in  this  combination  you  get  the  best  paint  it 
is  possible  to  make,  for  it  is  the  Patton  Paint,  made  in  the  Patton  propor- 
tions, and  is  unrivaled  for  beauty,  durability,  and  covering  powers. 

These  tinting  colors  are  wonderfully  popular.  With  only  five  colors, 
some  twenty  stylish  house  shades  can  be  made  accurately.  Any  one  can 
use  them.  See  directions  on  the  color  card,  which  may  be  had  upon

Uses  up  clean — no  waste  in  sediment 
at  the  bottom  of  the  package.  The 
paint  dries  quick  and  hard. 

The  cost  of  this  lead  is  much  less 
than  strictly  pure  lead,  thus  effecting  a 
double  saving. 

This  paint  has  been  accepted  after 
trial  by  some  of  the  leading  sash  and 
door  factories  in  the  United  States. 

Use  this  primer  and  our  putty.  It

Patton’s  White  Ochre  is

by  the  addition  of  durable 
and  body-making  pig- 
ments, which  makes  it  of 
greater  “body,”  more  ex- 
pensive, and  unlike  the 
“white  ochres”  usually 
sold.  White  Ochre  pro- 
duces more  paint,  ready

OR  PARIS  GREEN  SUBSTITUTE— GROUND  IN  OIL 

This  article  is  designed  by  the  manufacturers  as  a substitute  for  Paris  Green.  In 
most  respects  it  will  be  found  preferable,  being  free  from  arsenic  and  non-poisonous. 
Has  great  body,  durability,  and  brilliancy.  Particularly  adapted  for  painting  window 
blinds  and  common  purposes.  Its  covering  power  unsurpassed  by  any  other  green,  an 
equal  weight  of  it  covering  four  or  five  times  as  much  surface  as  Paris  Green,  thereby 
reducing  cost  of  labor  and  stock.

being  used.  Iron  Filler  can

PATTON’S  SUN-PROOF  GRAPHITE  PAINT  - — castor 

CONTAINING  A SMALL  PERCENTAGE  OF  SILICA 

Experience  has  demonstrated  that  no  paint  excels  Graphite  for 
durability,  where  it  can  be  used.  Its  color,  a slate,  prevents  its  use 
except  for  roofs,  bridges,  etc.  There  are  other  colors  offered  as 
“graphite  paint,’’  but  if  the  color  is  materially  different  from  the  natural 
graphite  color,  then  so  much  foreign  matter  has  been  added  as  to  destroy 
its  real  value. 

Graphite,  being  a form  of  carbon,  cannot  be  affected  by  acid,  alkali, 
gas,  or  any  solution  known  to  chemists.  It  has  remarkable  fire-proofing 
properties,  and  has  been  subjected  for  months  to  acids,  alkalies,  water, 
brine,  and  sulphur  fumes,  withstanding  them  all.  It  will  cover  much 
more  surface  than  metallic  oxide — one  gallon  of  this  paint,  when  mixed 
ready  for  use,  covering  from  six  to  seven  hundred  feet  of  iron  surface. 

Roof  painting  is  a subject  that  does  not  receive  the  attention  it 
should,  and  often  a good  iron  or  tin  roof  is  ruined  for  the  lack  of  paint, 
when  ten  years  might  be  added  to  its  life  at  a very  small  expense.  The 
life  of  a metal  roof  is  good  paint,  and  it  is  therefore  very  essential  that 
good  material  should  be  used. 

Some  “graphite  paints”  on  the  market  contain  no  graphite  whatever. 

Patton’s  Sun-Proof  Graphite  Paint  is  the  best  it  is  possible  to  manu- 
facture. There  is  but  little  difference  in  price  between  Patton’s  and  the 
other  kind.

Not  many  years  ago  wood  fillers 
were  largely  composed  of  starch 
and  other  vegetable  products.  A 
bright  Yankee  conceived  of  the 
idea  of  a mineral  filler  chiefly  com- 
posed of  quartz  and  secured  a pat- 
ent on  his  mixture.  The  patent 
expired  several  years  ago,  which 
makes  the  improvement  public 
property.  It  is  needless  to  add 
that  Patton’s  Filler  is  based  on 
quartz.

PITTSBURGH  PLATE  CLASS  COMPANY 


TOR-ON 

SHINGLE  OIL  STAIN 

is  composed  of  Patton’s  Perfect  Shingle  Preservative  and  Patton’s  Shingle-Stain 
Colors. 

In  this  shingle  stain  we  offer  the  trade  an  entirely  new  system  of  shingle  stain- 
ing or  tinting.  Briefly,  it  is  based  on  the  principle  which  we  employ  in  our  Master 
Painters’  Tinting  Colors. 

A certain  quantity  of  the  Paste  Shingle  Stain  is  mixed  with  another  definite 
quantity  of  our  Tor-On  Shingle  Oil,  and  this  combination  produces  just  what  you 
want  in  the  way  of  a liquid  shingle  staining  or  tinting  mixture  which  is  perfectly 
adapted  for  the  work  it  is  required  to  do. 

It  has  taken  long  experience  in  the  manufacture  of  shingle  stains  and  a very 
definite  knowledge  of  the  needs  of  the  trade  and  some  very  ingenious  planning  to 
bring  out  this  new  method  of  saving  time,  trouble,  and  money  both  to  the  trade  and 
to  those  who  do  the  work  of  painting  and  staining. 

The  value  of  Patton’s  scheme  will  be  apparent  at  a glance.  The  dealer,  instead 
of  buying  a dozen  barrels  of  different  colors  of  shingle  stain,  simply  buys  one  of  our 
steel  drums  filled  with  Patton’s  Tor-On  Shingle  Oil  and  with  it  an  outfit  of  the 
various  tints  in  paste  form  of  Patton’s  Shingle  Oil  Colors.  The  shingle  oil  in  the 
steel  barrel  can  not  evaporate  and  the  paste  shingle  colors  can  not  deteriorate. 

According  to  the  old  method  the  dealer  had  to  buy  large  quantities  of  liquid  in 
which  the  stain  was  already  mixed.  This  necessitated  his  keeping  in  stock  more 
than  he  could  expect  to  sell  for  a long  time.  Part  of  it  evaporated  and  the  rest  of  it 
settled  to  the  bottom,  and  the  colors  lost  their  luster  and  tinting  power  by  standing 
in  the  liquid. 

According  to  our  plan  you  have  to  buy  only  the  one  barrel,  which  is  made  of  steel, 
and  from  which  the  shingle  oil  can  not  evaporate,  and  you  buy  the  shingle  colors  in 
paste  form,  ready  ground,  in  cans  in  which  the  colors  can  not  deteriorate,  and  when 
a customer  desires  a certain  amount  of  liquid  shingle  stain,  there  is  nothing  to  do  but 
to  measure  out  the  quantity  of  shingle  oil  needed  for  the  number  of  feet  to  be  cov- 
ered, and  to  take  down  from  the  shelf  the  cans  of  shingle  colors  that  are  needed  for 
the  tint  and  strength  of  color  desired.  The  customer  takes  them  home  and  mixes 
them  when  he  is  ready  to  apply  the  shingle  stain.  You  are  left  with  clean  hands  and 
a clear  conscience — clean  hands,  because  you  have  not  had  to  stir  up  the  settlings 
from  the  bottom  of  a dirty  barrel;  a clear  conscience,  because  you  have  given  your 
customer  a fair  deal  and  have  done  him  a favor,  and  you  have  made  a fair  profit  on 
the  goods  you  have  sold. 

Tor-On  Shingle  Stain  is  the  perfection  of  a liquid  shingle  stain.  This  perfect 
Shingle  Oil  is  the  best  solvent  it  is  possible  to  make  for  the  colors.  The  Paste 
Shingle  Colors  are  the  perfection  of  shades  requisite  to  artistic  house  decoration. 
They  are  in  just  the  same  condition  when  they  reach  you  as  when  they  leave  the 
factory,  because  they  are  sealed  hermetically  in  air-tight  cans,  and  can  not  spoil  by 
the  air  or  dust  or  by  too  long  standing  in  the  liquid,  which  is  only  intended  to  hold 
them  for  spreading. 

These  Paste  Shingle  Colors  are  put  up  in  cans  of  three  sizes,  a small  can  which 
contains  the  proper  amount  of  color  to  tint  one  gallon  of  the  Tor-On  Shingle  Oil,  a 
large  can  to  tint  five  gallons,  and  a still  larger  can  to  tint  ten  gallons  of  Shingle  Oil. 

The  trade-mark  name  of  Tor-On,  if  spelled  backward,  gives  a good  definition  of 
the  reason  for  the  name,  and  simply  states  the  fact  about  Tor-On  Shingle  Stain 
which  makes  it  so  valuable  an  agent  in  the  preservation  of  shingles.  There  is  no  rot 
about  the  shingles  which  have  been  treated  with  Tor-On  Shingle  Stain.  You  will 
double  the  life  of  your  shingles  by  staining  them  with  Tor-On  Shingle  Stain.  It 
acts  as  a preservative  from  rot  as  well  as  being  a most  artistic  finish  in  the  making  of 
beautiful  homes.

SEVENTEENTH  CENTURY  FLOOR  WAX  — cement 


The  use  of  floor  wax  is  increasing,  owing  to  the  desirability  of  hard- 
wood for  floors.  No  paint  stock  is  complete  nowadays  without  a small 
stock  of  floor  wax. 

Packed  in  i,  2,  4 and  8 lb.  tins per  lb.  $0  75 

DIRECTIONS 

For  new  floors,  first  fill  the  wood  with  paste  wood  filler,  clean  off 
surface  with  rough  cloth  or  excelsior,  and  allow  to  stand  until  filler  is 
thoroughly  dry.  Then  put  on  a coat  of  polish  with  a rag  or  brush  and 
allow  to  stand  about  half  an  hour.  Then  take  a weighted  brush  with 
long  handle  and  rub  across  the  grain  first  and  with  the  grain  afterward. 
To  obtain  a high  gloss,  apply  second  coat  in  same  way,  and  finish  by 
placing  a piece  of  dry,  soft  cloth  or  piece  of  carpet  under  the  brush  and 
go  over  floor  again.

THE  USE  OF  BRUSHES 


(FROM  THE  WESTERN  PAINTER,  CHICAGO) 

Too  much  cannot  be  said  in  regard  to  the  use  and  care  of  brushes. 
We  have  seen  many  persons  who  were  good  painters,  but  who  did  not 
seem  to  understand  anything  about  taking  care  of  their  tools. 

Cold,  dry  winters  are  especially  severe  on  brushes,  which  are  usually 
kept  in  buildings  that  are  heated  by  steam,  furnaces  or  other  dry  heat. 
A brush  should  never  be  condemned  because  it  contains  a few  loose  hairs. 
A good  and  careful  workman  will  get  these  out  before  he  puts  his  brush 
into  use.  A little  thoughtfulness  on  the  part  of  foremen  in  shops  will 
save  a large  amount  of  trouble,  and  many  a brush  that  is  hastily  con- 
demned would  prove  a good  one. 

Swelling  a new  brush  is  a very  important  item 
in  the  future  usefulness  of  that  tool.  Under  no 
circumstances  should  a new  brush  (paint  or  varnish, 
round  or  oval)  be  put  in  water  to  swell  with  the 
bristles  down,  for  water-soaked  bristles  will  always 
work  flabby,  and  if  the  bristles  are  of  a fine  quality, 
they  will  nearly  always  twist.  The  handles  are 
usually  driven  into  round  and  oval  brushes.  As 
the  wood  and  bristles  both  shrink  when  the  brushes  are  kept  in  a 
warm,  dry  place,  it  is  advisable  to  swell  these  brushes  before  using 
them.  Be  careful,  though,  to  put  your  brushes  in  the  water  with  the 
handle  down,  as  shown  in  the  accompanying  illustration,  letting  the 
water  come  just  to  the  point  where  the  bristles  emerge  from  the  binding. 
This  will  swell  the  handle  without  soaking  the  elasticity  out  of  the 
bristles  and  without  making  them  flabby. 

Keep  brushes  in  a cool  or  damp  spot,  and  as  near  the  floor  as  pos- 
sible. Exposures  to  heat  will  sometimes  cause  the  wood  to  shrink  and 
the  best  brush  to  shed  bristles. 

Whitewash  Brushes  should  never  be  put  in  hot  or  newly  slacked 
lime,  or  lime  with  acids  in  it,  as  this  burns  the  bristle  and  causes  it  to 
lose  its  vitality,  and  makes  the  ends  break  off. 

Dealers  should  acquaint  their  customers  with  these  facts,  and  when 
complaints  are  made,  inquire  whether  the  above  directions  have  been 
observed.

is  unequaled  for  front  doors,  store  fronts,  etc.  It  not  only  possesses  unusual  wearing 
properties,  but  dries  quickly  out  of  the  way  of  dust — a very  important  feature  in  an 
outside  varnish,  and  one  which  every  painter  fully  appreciates.

For  all  interior  woodwork  where  the  e.xposure  is  unusually  severe,  such  as  win- 
dow sash  and  sills,  inside  blinds,  bath-rooms,  etc..  Elastic  Interior  Finish  can  be  rec- 
ommended with  the  utmost  confidence.  It  will  resist  the  action  of  hot  water,  soap, 
etc.,  longer  than  any  other  “ Finish  ” we  know  of,  and  is  without  doubt  the  best  article 
of  the  kind  ever  introduced.

This  is  without  doubt  the  best  Floor  Finish  made,  both  in  point  of  appearance 
and  durability  of  finish. 

Being  transparent  it  will  not  obscure  the  grain  of  the  wood,  but  will  develop  its 
beauty  and  preserve  it. 

It  is  made  in  two  grades,  A and  B,  the  former  being  heavy  in  body  and  suitable 
for  use  on  new  floors,  and  the  latter  more  limpid  and  intended  for  refinishing  or 
restoring  old  floors. 

It  is  also  the  best  finish  in  the  market  for  oilcloth  and  linoleum,  prolonging  their 
life  and  enhancing  the  brightness  of  the  colors.

SPRAMOTOR  JR.  PAINTING  MACHINE  — leather 

This  outfit  is  complete  in  every  respect, 
and  with  it  any  kind  of  work  can  be  done 
that  can  be  accomplished  with  one  nozzle. 
When  attached  to  our  patent  five-gallon 
can,  it  is  a most  portable  device;  can  be 
carried  about  by  one  hand,  or  by  means  of 
the  handles  provided.  The  can  has  a raised 
bottom,  and  heavy  flanged  rim,  on  which 
the  can  rests.  Our  patent  catches  allow 
the  lid  to  be  instantly  removed.  It  effectu- 
ally prevents  any  splashing,  and  a lady  can 
use  the  apparatus  at  any  class  of  work,  or 
with  any  kind  of  mixture,  and  not  soil  her 
dress. 

The  can  may  be  refilled  (without  re- 
moving the  Spramotor)  through  the  hand- 
hole provided  with  cover  for  that  purpose. 
As  all  the  work  of  operation  is  done  on  the 
down  stroke,  there  is  no  tendency  to  lift  the  can  in  raising  the  handle  of 
the  motor.  The  stroke  of  the  Spramotor  Jr.  is  4 inches,  and  the  diameter 
of  the  plunger  is  inches,  and  a vapor  or  spray  can  be  developed  easily 
with  one  nozzle.  Can  be  operated  with  one  or  two  people.  This  outfit 


has  brass  agitator,  painting  nozzle,  patent  shut-off.

knife  or  scraper.  Sponge  off  the  surface  with  clear  cold  water.  Acid  or  bleacher  is 
not  necessary.  If  the  work  is  in  a perpendicular  position,  dissolve  as  above  and  add 
enough  lump  lime  to  make  a thick  cream  and  keep  from  running  down.  The  lime 
should  always  be  fresh  slacked.

SPONGES 


Genuine  Sheep’s-Wool  Sponges — liver per  lb.  S3  00 

4 to  6,  6 to  8 to  pound  and  other  sizes.  The  best  Sponge  for  all  purposes. 
Velvet  Sponges — livery.  More  open  than  the  Yellow  or  Grass,  but  rather 

tougher  than  either per  lb.  2 00 

Yellow  Sponges — livid.  Closer  texture  than  Velvet  but  hardly  as  tough-peiTb.  i 75 
Grass  Sponges— /zYz'wjf.  A good  sponge  for  the  price;  soft  and  elastic  when 

wet  I 25 


SPONGE  POINTS 

In  this  connection  we  desire  to  call  attention  generally  of  all  who 
deal  in  and  use  sponges  to  two  important  points: 

1.  That  as  the  sponge  grows  in  water  and  is  used  wet,  it  should  be 
offered  for  sale  wet.  Sponges  when  dry  are  hard,  rough  and  easily  torn; 
when  wet,  are  soft  and  elastic  and  much  less  easily  torn.  The  difference 
between  fruit  and  fish,  glue  and  gelatine  in  dried  and  soaked  state 
applies  to  sponges.  It  can  be  therefore  readily  conceived  that  it  is  to 
the  interest  of  the  dealer  to  offer  the  sponges  for  sale  wet. 

2.  Please  note:  The  strongest  sponge  is  easily  torn  by  pulling 
across  the  grain.  The  fair  test  is  with  the  grain.  Everything  has  a 
grain.  Wooden  columns  support  buildings  because  with  or  along  the 
grain,  but  wood  across  the  grain  can  be  easily  broken.

POPULAR  GLASS  BOARD-iock,^/

A FEW  REASONS  WHY  YOU  CANNOT  AFFORD  TO  BE  WITHOUT  IT 

1.  Owing  to  its  construction,  it  can  neither  warp,  swell  nor  shrink, 
and  must  retain  its  original  shape  permanently. 

2.  The  most  inexperienced  can  cut  glass  with  perfect  accuracy,  it 
being  impossible  for  the  straight-edge  to  slip  while  cutting. 

3.  Its  illuminated  numbers  enable  you  to  cut  glass  in  the  darkest 
spot  of  your  store. 

4.  It  makes  glass-cutting  a pleasure  instead  of  a dread. 

5.  It  is  a perfect  glass  board  that  is  offered  at  a popular  price.

PERFECTION  GLASS  BOARDS 


THE  PERFECTION  GLASS  BOARD— iocusi 


This  board  has  many  advantages.  It  is  quickly  adjusted,  more  so 
than  any  other.  It  is  the  only  board  with  which  the  rule  can  be  adjusted 
so  as  to  cut  eighths,  quarters  and  halves  of  an  inch,  by  merely  turning  a 
thumb  nut  at  end  of  rule.  The  rule  is  held  firmly  at  both  ends,  and 
when  a number  of  lights  are  to  be  cut  all  the  same  size,  every  one  will  be 
alike.  Our  board  should  not  be  compared  with  the  cheaper  grade  soft 
wood  boards,  ours  being  made  of  hard  wood  only  and  made  to  prevent 
warping. 

Size  of  Board,  24x36 each,  $21  60  Size  of  Board,  42x60 each,  $35  00

GLASS 


PLATE  GLASS 


When  and  how  “ Glass”  came  to  be  discovered  and  manufactured 
we  do  not  know.  It  was  in  use  to  some  extent  in  Egypt  two  thou- 
sand years  before  the  Christian  Era;  but  for  how  much  longer  a period 
does  not  perhaps  concern  us. 

The  subject  of  immediate  interest  to  us  is  “ Plate  Glass,”  and  we 
know  its  history,  for  it  dates  back  only  a little  over  two  hundred 
years. 

It  is  to  France  that  we  are  indebted  for  the  crystal  show-w'indows 
that  ornament  our  thoroughfares,  for  the  splendid  mirrors  that  re- 
flect the  faces  and  forms  of  our  beautiful  women,  and  for  the  plate 
glass  that  shields  our  loved  ones  from  the  inclemency  of  the  weather, 
and  adds  so  much  to  the  attractiveness  and  beauty  of  our  homes. 


2 I 2 


PITTSBURGH  PLATE  GLASS  COMPANY 


THE  MAKING  OF  PLATE  GLASS 

We  have  often  been  asked,  How  is  plate  glass  made,  and  what  is 
it  made  of? 

Answering  these  questions  briefly,  we  have  to  say,  first,  that  it  is 
made  of  sand,  soda,  and  lime,  fused  at  a very  high  temperature  into  a 
double  silicate  which  is  called  glass. 

To  answer  how  it  is  made  we  cannot  do  better  than  to  give  the 
description  of  casting  plate  glass  as  written  by  Mr.  M.  A.  Cochin: 

When  one  enters  for  the  first  time  into  one  of  the  vast  plate  works 
at  night,  the  furnaces  arc  closed,  and  the  dull  sound  of  a violent 
though  captive  fire  alone  interrupts  the  silence.  From  time  to  time  a 
workman  opens  the  working  hole  to  look  into  the  furnace  at  the  con- 
dition of  the  glass;  long,  bluish  flames  then  light  the  sides  of  the 
annealing  ovens,  the  blackened  beams,  the  heavy  casting  tables,  and 
the  mattresses  on  which  half-naked  workmen  quietly  sleep.  Suddenly 
the  hour  strikes;  the  call  is  beaten  on  the  iron  slabs  which  surround 
the  furnace.  The  maneuvers  begin  with  the  activity  and  precision  of 
an  artillery  movement.  The  furnaces  are  opened,  the  glowing  pots 
are  seized,  drawn  out,  and  raised  into  the  air  by  mechanical  means; 
they  pass  like  hanging  globes  of  fire  along  the  beams,  then  stop,  and 
are  lowered  over  the  iinmense  cast-iron  table,  placed  with  its  roller 
before  the  open  mouth  of  the  annealing  oven.  The  signal  given,  the 
pot  is  inclined  quickly  and  the  beautiful  opal  liquid,  brilliant,  trans- 
parent, and  unctuous,  falls  and  spreads  over  the  table  like  ductile  wax. 


CASTING  PLATE  GLASS 


214 


PITTSBURGH  PLATE  CLASS  COMPANY 


At  a second  signal  the  roller  passes  over  the  red  and  paste-like 
glass;  a workman,  with  his  eyes  fixed  on  the  fiery  substance,  skims 
off  all  apparent  defects  with  bold  and  skillful  hand ; then  the  roller 
falls  and  passes  off. 


ROLLING  PLATE  GLASS 


PITTSBURGH  PLATE  CLASS  COMPANY 


2 I 6 


And  now  i wenty  Avorkmen,  provided  with  suitable  tools,  quickly 
push  the  glass  into  the  oven,  where  it  is  annealed  by  sloAvly  cooling. 
The  workmen  then  return  the  emptied  pot  to  the  furnace  and  begin 
again,  without  disorder,  without  noise,  without  rest,  until  all  the 
pots  of  the  furnace  have  been  cast.  The  jjots  are  refilled,  the  fur- 
nace reclosed,  darkness  again  falls,  and  the  continuous  noise  of  the 
fire  preparing  fresh  work  is  again  the  only  sound  heard. 


STORING  THE  HOT-ROLLED  PLATE 


PITTSBURGH  PLATE  GLASS  COMPAN'T 


The  process  of  taking  it  out  of  the  ovens  is  less  dramatic  than  the 
casting.  And  yet  it  is  striking  to  see  twelve  workmen,  with  no 
other  help  than  leather  straps,  raise  and  carry  this  large,  thin,  and 
fragile  glass  upon  its  edge,  walking  in  step,  like  drilled  soldiers,  from 
the  annealing  ovens  to  the  racks,  where  it  is  now  ready  for  the  next 
process — the  grinding  and  smoothing. 


CARRYING  ROUGH  PLATEi  GLASS 


2 20 


PITTSBURGH  PLATE  CLASS  COMPANY 


The  glass  is  now  rough  and  opaque,  and  must  undergo  the 
different  processes  of  grinding  and  smoothing  to  bring  the  surfaces  to 
a perfect  plane,  and  give  it  that  satin-like  finish  that  is  so  necessary 
to  its  successful  polishing.  The  grinding  is  done  by  the  use  of  suc- 
cessive grades  of  sand,  beginning  with  the  very  coarsest,  and  following 
grade  by  grade  down  to  the  very  finest  grain.  The  smoothing  is  then 
completed  by  following,  in  a similar  manner,  with  emery,  carefully 
graded. 


GRINDING  THE  ROUGH  PLATE  GLASS 


222 


PITTSBURGH  PLATE  CLASS  COMPANY 


The  glass  is  still  opaque  and  must  be  polished  to  make  it  trans- 
parent. The  polishing  is  one  of  the  most  delicate  processes  in  the 
manufacture,  for,  as  it  has  to  transmit  or  reflect  light,  there  must  be 
no  defect  in  it  to  disperse  or  obscure  the  rays. 


POLISHING  THE  GROUND  AND  SMOOTH  PLATE  GLASS 


224 


PITTSBURGH  PLATE  GLASS  COMPANY 


By  this  mechanical  work  the  glass  loses  at  least  one-third  of  its 
weight.  A glass  works  producing  a million  square  feet  of  finished 
plate  glass  annually  would  make  about  six  million  pounds  of  rough 
plate,  and  this,  when  finished,  would  only  weigh  three  million  five 
hundred  thousand  pounds,  showing  a loss  in  actual  glass  of  two 
million  five  hundred  thousand  pounds,  Avhich  passes  off  in  the  debris 
to  the  river. 

When  we  add  to  this  the  fact  that  about  one-half  of  the  weight 
of  the  lime  and  soda  originally  used  to  produce  this  glass,  released 
by  heat,  escapes  into  the  atmosphere  in  the  shape  of  carbonic  and 
sulphuric  acid,  one  may  get  some  idea  of  the  vast  waste  of  material 
and  the  consequent  cost  of  converting  such  homely  substances  as 
sand,  soda  and  limestone  into  so  beautiful  an  article  as  plate  glass. 


CARRYING  THE  FINISHED  PLATE 


226 


PITTSBURGH  PLATE  CLASS  COMPANY 


And  now  a word  as  to  the  general  idea  of  the  costliness  of  plate 
glass.  Only  a few  years  ago  it  was  looked  upon  as  a great  luxury 
in  which  none  but  the  wealthiest  could  indulge.  But  now  the  point 
has  been  reached  where  it  has  become  a necessity;  where  anyone 
who  is  able  to  build  a home,  however  humble,  can  well  afford  to  use 
plate  glass  for  its  windows.  Nothing  so  adorns  the  beauty  of  a home 
nor  gives  so  great  delight  to  its  possessor,  or  adds  so  much  to  its 
value,  at  so  slight  a cost,  as  plate  glass. 

It  is  our  natural  desire  to  interest  you  in  plate  glass;  to  point  out 
its  merits  and  its  beauty. 

If  you  contemplate  building  a home,  we  would  convince  you  of 
the  advantages  that  you  will  acquire  by  using  plate  glass  instead  of 
common  window  glass. 

If  you  already  have  a home,  and  it  is  disfigured  by  common 
window  glass,  we  wish  to  show  you  how  richly  rewarded  you  will  be 
in  increased  comfort  and  enjoyment,  as  well  as  the  value  you  will  add 
to  your  home  by  substituting  plate  glass  for  the  obsolete  and  imper- 
fect window  glass. 

Nothing  but  the  diamond  is  so  limpid  as  good  plate  glass. 


EXAMINING  THE  FINISHED  PLATE  FOR  DEFECTS  AND  CUTTING  PLATE  GLASS 


228 


PITTSBURGH  PLATE  CLASS  COMPANY 


ONE  WAY 

is  to  use  common  window  glass,  which  is  usually  streaked,  smoked, 
and  stained,  and  full  of  minute  air  bubbles.  Objects  seen  through  it 
become  deformed  and  distorted.  When  sunshine  falls  upon  it,  it  has 
the  appearance  of  the  battered  bottom  of  a tin  pan.  It  never  looks 
clean,  no  matter  how  carefully  it  is  washed  and  dried. 

THE  OTHER  WAY 

is  to  use  plate  glass,  which  glistens  like  a mirror,  and  reflects  like 
one.  Objects  seen  through  it  are  sharp  and  clean  cut.  It  has  no

about  cleaning  it,  and  when  cleaned  it  keeps  clean  a long  time.

Plate  glass  keeps  a house  warmer  in  winter  and  cooler  in  summer. 

It  adds  to  the  beauty  both  within  and  without. 

It  is  a source  of  constant  delight  because  so  easily  kept  clean. 

It  gives  additional  value  to  your  home  far  beyond  any  cost  it  may 
have  been  to  you. 

When  you  look  through  a plate  glass  window  the  view  is  clear, 
distinct,  and  perfect.  If  you  look  at  the  plate  glass  window  from 
the  outside,  in  the  shade  it  reflects  like  a mirror  “The  Passing 
Show’’;  or,  if  you  are  so  fortunate  as  to  have  your  home  in  the 
country,  it  mirrors  the  landscape  like  a framed  picture — because 
plate  glass  is  mirror  glass. 

PLATE  GLASS  IN  A HOUSE 

Lifts  its  outside  tone  just  as  pictures  and  rugs  and  fine  furniture  lift 
the  inside  tone.  Plate  glass  does  more.  It  helps  the  inside  of  the 
house  more  because  it  is  in  keeping  with  all  the  accessories  that 
refinement  calls  for.  It  brings  a refining  influence  of  its  own,  and 
helps  every  other  feature  of  the  house  to  be  more  elegant.  It  lets 
daylight  into  rooms  freed  from  all  discordancies — sublimated  day- 
light, as  it  were. 

Children  are  healthier,  plants  are  healthier,  the  whole  household 
is  healthier  and  happier  for  these  crystal-clear  sheets  in  the  windows. 

No  dollars  can  be  put  into  a house  that  will  count  so  much  for 
real  luxury  and  lasting  delight  as  those  that  pay  for  plate  glass. 

Even  when  the  cost  of  plate  glass  was  vastly  greater  than  its 
present  price  there  would  have  been  real  economy  in  its  use. 

But  now,  with  electric  lights  crowding  gas,  as  gas  not  long  ago 
was  crowding  lamps  and  candles;  with  new  opportunities  for  house 
beautifying  and  embellishment  springing  up  on  every  hand;  with  the 
spirit  of  the  age  calling  for  everything  that  will  make  the  home  and  its 
surroundings  more  elegant  and  more  artistic,  not  to'make  free  use  of 
plate  glass  in  the  windows  is  as  absurd  as  it  would  be  to  cling  to 
eight-cent  wall  paper  because  fresco  and  mural  paintings  are  more 
expensive.  It  is  more  absurd,  for  plate  glass  brings  light  and  life,  as 
well  as  beauty. 

The  cost  of  plate  glass  is  much  less  than  a few  years  ago.  It  is 
still  more  expensive,  square  foot  for  square  foot,  than  sheet  glass,

but  on  even  a house  costing  no  more  than  $1,500,  it  can  be  used 
with  positive  profit  to  the  owner  should  he  care  to  sell — the  extra 
outlay  being  more  than  offset  by  the  increased  beauty  and  market 
value  of  the  house.

AMERICAN  WINDOW 

GLASS 

While  it  is  generally  well  known  that  the  Pittsburgh  Plate  Glass 
Company  are  the  largest  manufacturers  of  plate  glass  in  the  world,  it 
is  not  so  well  known  that  they  are  also  the  largest  jobbers  of  window 
glass,  mirrors,  rough,  ribbed  and  ornamental  glass  of  all  kinds.  This 
is  because  the  jobbing  business  has  been  of  a more  recent  growth. 

We  buy  about  one-third  of  the  window  glass  produced  in  the 
United  States,  outside  of  New  Jersey,  and  take  the  entire  output  of 
several  of  the  more  modern  tanks.  Our  large  buying  capacity  enables 
us  to  make  prompt  shipments  and  to  furnish  the  best  obtainable 
brands;  we  are  glad  at  all  times  to  give  our  customers  the  benefit  of 
our  opinions  on  the  market,  and  we  have  been  of  much  service  to  our 
friends  in  this  irianner.  For  the  convenience  of  the  trade,  we  carry  a 
large  and  complete  stock  of  window  glass  at  all  our  various  branches. 


FRENCH  PICTURE  GLASS 

Our  Foreign  Department  is  under  the  charge  of  Mr.  Richard 
Melchers,  and  we  have  our  own  resident  agent  at  Charleroi,  Belgium, 
which  gives  us  a decided  advantage  in  direct  importations.  Also,  we 
are  exclusive  agents  for  Louis  Lambert’s  well-known  brand  of  glass, 
which  is  especially  adapted  for  fine  trade,  and  is  in  demand  by 
picture  framers.

GREENHOUSE  GLASS 

We  make  a specialty  of  glass  for  green-house  purposes,  and  are 
at  all  times  ready  to  make  prompt  and  low  quotations  for  present  or 
future  deliveries.  All  inquiries  addressed  to  our  nearest  warehouse 
will  receive  immediate  and  courteous  attention. 

We  have  our  own  sand  blast,  beveling  and  silvering  plants,  and 
at  several  of  our  branches  manufacture  leaded  art  glass. 

SPECIAL  PRICES 

There  are  many  times  during  the  year  when  we  are  able  to  name 
special  prices  on  certain  e.xcess  sizes  of  stock.  We  particularly  solicit 
inquiries  for  orders  of  this  character  where  the  glass  is  desired  for 
special  purposes,  or  where  the  customer  contemplates  putting  in  a 
larger  stock  than  usual.

MIRRORS 


In  the  year  625  Pope  Boniface  IV  sent  from  Rome  to  the  good 
and  beautiful  Queen  Ethelberga,  wife  of  Edwin  of  Northumbria,  a 
present  of  a mirror. 

Ten  and  a half  centuries  later,  or  in  1673,  Colbert,  Minister  of 
Finance  to  Eouis  XIV,  replying  to  a proposal  from  Italy  to  manufac- 
ture large  mirrors  in  P'rance,  said:  “There  would  be  absolutely  no 
sale  for  large  mirrors  in  the  kingdom;  there  would  be  no  one  but  the 
King  who  would  have  any  use  for  them.’’  So  slowly  during  the  long 
sleep  of  the  middle  ages  did  the  world  advance  in  the  elegancies  and 
comforts  of  life. 

Two  hundred  years  after  Colbert’s  time  the  mirror  was  to  be 
found  not  merely  in  kings’  palaces,  but  in  the  humblest  homes  of  all 
the  world. 


“The  truest  mirror,  that  an  honest  wife 
Can  see  her  beauty  in."

POLISHED  PLATE  MIRRORS  — tocsin 

Our  plants  for  the  manufacture  of  plain  and  bev- 
eled mirrors  are  the  most  extensive  in  this  country. 
Our  New  York  plant  alone,  which  has  been  increased 
during  the  last  three  years,  now  stands  second  to 
none  in  size.  We  also  have  plants  in  the  cities  of 
Philadelphia,  Boston,  Cincinnati,  Minneapolis  and 
Davenport,  which  have  been  put  up  for  the  accom- 
modation of  the  trade  in  their  respective  territories, 
with  the  view  of  serving  our  friends  promptly  and 
well  for  all  their  requirements,  regardless  of  size  or  pattern. 

All  our  plants  are  fitted  with  the  most  improved  machinery,  and  we 
are  able  to  bevel  plates  of  the  largest  dimensions. 

We  are  using  the  celebrated  “Durand  Process’’  of  silvering,  which 
has  stood  the  test  of  years,  and  is  acknowledged  to  be  of  the  highest 
standard  of  excellence,  as  well  as  most  durable.  By  reason  of  this 
process,  people  who  use  our  plates  have  no  complaints  to  make  about 
spotted  or  clouded  mirrors.  Our  patrons  thus  avoid  the  disagreeble 
necessity  of  returning  them  on  account  of  defects  or  faults.  Furniture 
manufacturers  appreciate  merits  of  this  sort. 

AMERICAN  BEAUTY  MIRRORS— 

Our  “American  Beauty’’  Mirror  Plates  are  manu- 
factured to  compete  with  German  looking-glass  plates, 
and  are  better  than  the  Germans  in  every  way.  They 
•are  silvered  by  the  same  process  as  that  which  we  use 
for  our  higher  grades  of  plates;  which  is  a guaranty  of 
their  excellence.  They  are  rapidly  displacing  the 
ordinary  German  looking-glass  plates  in  the  market. 
The  prices  of  “American  Beauty’’  plates  are  about 
the  same  as  the  Germans,  but  the  furniture  manufacturers  are  able  to

appreciate  the  superior  advantages  of  our  plates.  The  glass,  for  example, 
is  more  than  twice  as  thick  as  the  German,  and  the  bevel  being  flat,  is 
therefore  not  distorting. 

In  our  process  of  manufacture  we  are  able  to  make  plates  of  almost 
any  pattern.  This  fact,  of  itself,  makes  these  plates  desirable  to  the 
furniture  manufacturer,  because  it  enables  him  to  secure  a variety  of 
patterns  for  the  cheaper  grades  of  furniture. 


SASH  BARS. 


These  bars  are  made  of  iron  and  combine  the  valuable  features  of 
great  strength  and  lightness  of  appearance.  They  are  made  in  either 
iron  or  nickel  plate.  We  recommend  the  use  of  nickeled  bars  because 
they  so  vastly  improve  the  appearance  and  finish  of  the  front.  The  iron 
bars  are  equally  strong,  and  with  a japanned  finish  look  very  well.  The 
bars  are  made  in  widths  of  from  1 to  inches,  in  both  nickel  and  iron 
finish.  All  orders  shipped  with  promptness.

Wire  Glass  is  made  in  Rough,  Ribbed,  and  Maze  styles.  Special  atten- 
tion is  directed  to  Ribbed  and  Maze  Wire  Glass,  which  diffuses  light  in  a

LEADED  ART  GLASS  WORK 

The  following  pages  present  many  styles  and  grades  of  Art  Glass.  By 
producing  them  in  colors,  we  are  able  to  give  some  idea  of  how  the  fin- 
ished work  will  look;  although  it  is  never  possible  to  do  full  justice  to 
this  class  of  work  in  a printed  page. 

We  have  capable  artists  in  our  employ,  and  we  can  always  furnish 
leaded  glass  work  of  the  highest  artistic  excellence.  We  are  ready  at  all 
times  to  submit  special  water-color  sketches  for  art  glass,  when  desired. 

We  make  a specialty  of  church  work,  and  when  designing  church 
memorial  windows  we  are  always  glad  to  introduce  such  inscriptions,  de- 
signs, or  emblems  as  may  be  suggested  to  us.  Whenever  it  is  desired  to 
introduce  figures  and  faces  painted  in  fusible  colors,  we  can  insure  the 
carrying  out  of  the  work  in  a manner  as  creditable  to  the  purchaser  as  to 
the  artist. 

We  furnish  sash  for  art  glass  at  low  prices.  We  make  no  charge  for 
glazing  art  glass  ordered  from  us;  and  when  customers  desire  to  send 
their  own  sash  to  us  at  our  factory,  we  will  make  and  insert  the  art  glass 
without  any  charge  for  glazing.  There  is  less  risk  of  breakage  when 
glass  is  shipped  set  in  the  sash. 

VENTILATORS 

We  make  our  ventilating  frames  of  galvanized  iron,  and  can  insert 
ventilators  in  ordinary  frames  or  in  irregular  shapes. 

When  writing  for  special  designs  or  sketches  for  art  glass,  kindly  give 
us  the  sizes  and  shapes  of  the  openings,  and  also  state  about  what  price 
is  to  be  paid  for  the  glass.  We  make  no  charge  for  the  special  designs, 
but  we  expect  them  to  be  returned  to  us.
